    That was really cool. I went into it wondering why the bending string would be the B instead of the E (actually I went into it thinking the B would be a low B because I play a 7-string 😅 ) but the way Rob played it it makes a lot of sense. I'm gonna have to learn how to do that fingerstyle playing one of these days.

    Saw this when you first posted it in Keybase. Super neat idea. The only disadvantage of it seems to be having to hold the guitar at your hip to use it, but as someone in the background suggested, attaching it to your belt in some way may make it easier. I am also really curious to hear what he can do with it once he gets some more practice, because even just with a few minutes of playing with it he managed to do some interesting stuff and produce some interesting sounds. Hopefully he does a followup video at some point!

    edit: Another idea to make this better may be to use an accelerometer to detect the guitar tilt, then have that trigger a motor to pull the string tauter as it dips down, instead of relying on mechanical force to do it.
